Chocolate Champagne Cupcakes with Raspberry Icing are perfect for New Year’s Eve or any other special occasion. There is a hint of champagne in these classic chocolate raspberry cupcakes, just enough to make them extraordinary.

I knew I wanted to make some sort of New Year’s Eve dessert this year. But what exactly qualifies a dessert as suitable for New Year’s Eve? Whenever I searched online for dessert recipes to eat while the ball drops I noticed most of them had alcohol in them. What is more iconic around New Year’s than a champagne toast? I decided I wanted to make a healthy champagne based dessert. I decided to adapt the Chocolate Raspberry Champagne Cupcakes I saw on Yummy Crumble to make them sugar-free, low carb, and grain free.

The best part of this recipe is that my friends at Honeyville are going to give one of my readers a 3 pound bag of their blanched almond flour and a can of their cocoa powder so you can make it at home! Those are two ingredients I simply cannot live without. I love the texture of Honeyville’s almond flour and the taste of their cocoa powder. I highly recommend both for your baking needs.

Combine all the ingredients for the cupcakes in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Divide between the prepared cupcake tins. Bake for 30 minutes. Cool completely. They will sink a bit creating a well for the filling.

Meanwhile, combine the first 3 filling ingredients in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Sprinkle the gluccomannan on top and stir well. Set aside.

Next, to make the icing, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth with an electric mixer. Beat in the sweetener, raspberries, and champagne.

When the cupcakes have cooled divide the filling between them. Pipe the icing on top. Store in the refrigerator.
